Representations of stereotypes and genres

–In our short film we have representations of a typical male character but from different ages of there life. So it will include a typical representation of a: Young boy, Teenage boy, Adult male and an elderly male.–The common stereotypes of these sorts of people are as follows:–Young boy – late for school, rushing around, careless–Teenage boy – Finishing exams, excited, going to socialise–Adult male – Working, driving, going drinking–Elderly male – Walking stick, not doing much, content–These are all traditional representations of each of the age groups showing typical actions and emotions these sorts of groups would show.–The representation of these groups has stayed the same during the years, i think teenagers now are shown as being more violent nowadays than they used to but apart from that the representations are the same.
